Journal ArticleDOI
Requirements for and impact of a serious game for neuro-pediatric robot-assisted gait training.
Rob Labruyère,Corinna N. Gerber,Corinna N. Gerber,Karin Birrer-Brütsch,Andreas Meyer-Heim,Hubertus J. A. van Hedel +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that children with neurological gait disorders are able to modify their activity to the demands of the VR-scenario, however, cognitive function and motor impairment determine to which extent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Principal Component Analysis of Gait Kinematics Data in Acute and Chronic Stroke Patients
TL;DR: The joint angles analysis by means of the principal component analysis suggests that the PCA allows classification of the origin for the deficit in the gait when compared to healthy subjects; hence, the most appropriate treatment can be applied in the rehabilitation.

Effect of robotic-assisted treadmill training and chronic quipazine treatment on hindlimb stepping in spinally transected rats.
Ray D. de Leon,Cynthia N. Acosta +1 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that robotic-assisted training may generate hindlimb sensory stimuli that are effective in enhancing the ability of the lumbar spinal cord to generate hind Limb stepping, however, the effectiveness of robotic- assisted training may be limited to the early stages of recovery following spinal cord transection.

An Intensive Locomotor Training Paradigm Improves Neuropathic Pain following Spinal Cord Compression Injury in Rats
TL;DR: The unique ability of an ILT protocol to produce robust and sustained anti-nociceptive effects, as assessed by three distinct outcome measures for below-level SCI neuropathic pain, suggests that this adjunct therapeutic approach has great promise in a comprehensive treatment strategy for SCI pain.

Safety of robotic-assisted treadmill therapy in children and adolescents with gait impairment: a bi-centre survey.
Ingo Borggraefe,Mirjam Klaiber,Tabea Schuler,B. Warken,Sebastian A. Schroeder,Florian Heinen,Andreas Meyer-Heim +6 more
TL;DR: Robotic assisted treadmill therapy is a safe method to enable longer periods of gait therapy in children and adolescents with gait disorders and no severe side-effects emerged.

The Timed “Up & Go”: A Test of Basic Functional Mobility for Frail Elderly Persons
TL;DR: This study evaluated a modified, timed version of the “Get‐Up and Go” Test (Mathias et al, 1986) in 60 patients referred to a Geriatric Day Hospital and suggested that the timed “Up & Go’ test is a reliable and valid test for quantifying functional mobility that may also be useful in following clinical change over time.
Book
Gait Analysis: Normal and Pathological Function
TL;DR: This text encompasses the work of Dr Jacquelin Perry in her years as a therapist and surgeon focusing on the human gait, suitable for incorporating into many athletic training programmes, university physical therapy programmes and gait workshops.

International Standards for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury. American Spinal Injury Association.
TL;DR: The International Standards Booklet for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury (ISBWC) as mentioned in this paper is a standard for the classification of spinal cord injury. But it is not a classification of neurological disorders.
